Researchers placed 650 geophones along Yellowstone's roads and sent a vibrating truck to 110 different spots to deliberately shake America's most-visited supervolcano, and the echoes revealed a layer 2.4 miles down that is roughly 86 percent solid rock.
4+ day, 22+ hour ago (177+ words) What lies beneath Yellowstone's surface—and how close is the molten rock to breaking through? By Life Signs · Edited by Nato Lagidze Published September 9, 2026 · How we edit That imaging revealed a distinct, laterally continuous reflector less than about 100 meters thick…...
In 2015, University of Florida scientists poured 5 gallons of red Rhodamine dye into Silver River’s main spring vent to track how water moved as the clear spring run turned more algae-green
1+ week, 1+ day ago (89+ words) Five gallons is not much water. Poured out, it would fill a kitchen stockpot twice over, a volume a person can carry in one hand without leaning. By Deep Field · Edited by Justin Brown Published September 6, 2026 · How we edit Five…...
Mars has been called the Red Planet for centuries, but a 2025 study suggests its colour comes largely from ferrihydrite—an iron mineral that typically forms rapidly in cool liquid water. If the identification is correct, Mars did not rust only after becoming a desert: much of its famous red dust formed while the ancient planet was still wet.
1+ week, 1+ day ago (1584+ words) A 2025 spectral and laboratory study points to hydrated ferrihydrite as the chief pigment in Martian dust, tying the planet's colour to its wetter ancient climate.

A rock blasted off Mars is not a comet and is only a meteor for seconds; in space it is a meteoroid, and on the ground it becomes a Martian meteorite
1+ mon, 2+ day ago (508+ words) The same Martian rock transforms into four different things before scientists can even study it....
Mars can snow carbon dioxide at its poles, while some of its warmest summer landscapes grow dry-ice frost overnight that vanishes back into gas after sunrise
1+ mon, 2+ day ago (583+ words) Mars can produce snow from carbon dioxide near its winter poles. Far from those seasonal caps, however, the same material can appear in a quieter and more...
A dark rock picked off the gravel plains of Oman turned out to be a piece of Mars, blasted off the planet by an impact. It now rides aboard Perseverance as a calibration target, back on the world it came from
1+ mon, 3+ day ago (467+ words) A meteorite that fell to Earth from Mars now helps calibrate instruments on a rover exploring the Red Planet—a cosmic round trip that took 300,000 years. By Space Daily Editorial Team Published August 11, 2026 · How we edit In 1999, out on the…...
For years scientists argued whether the pale band along Jezero crater's western inner rim was lakeshore sediment or altered igneous rock. A study published in January 2026 suggests both sides were partly right — one stretch of it looks like a beach
1+ mon, 3+ day ago (573+ words) Mars's most disputed geological feature may finally reveal what it is: a shoreline where ancient water met stone. Published August 10, 2026 · How we edit Look at Jezero crater from orbit and one feature stands out: a pale band along the inside…...
The Grand Canyon looks vast until you set it beside Valles Marineris on Mars, a single rift so long it would stretch clear across the United States and in places plunges up to seven kilometres deep, making it the largest canyon in the solar system
1+ mon, 3+ week ago (918+ words) If Valles Marineris were placed on Earth, it could extend from California to New York. By Mal James · Editorial process Published July 23, 2026 If Valles Marineris were placed on Earth, it could extend from California to New York. It is not…...
The Great Salt Lake is drying up, and as it pulls back it uncovers hundreds of square miles of lakebed laced with arsenic, sitting directly upwind of more than two million people
